Product Overview

​ TYJW2.1 is a Wi-Fi module, developed by Hangzhou Tuya Information Technology Co., Ltd., for serial port communication at the level of 5V TTL. It mainly consists of a highly integrated wireless RF chip ESP8266EX and external flash chip, with the built-in Wi-Fi network protocol stack and rich library functions. TYJW2.1 also contains a 32-bit CPU of low power consumption, 1Mbyte flash and 36K SRAM.

​ TYJW2.1 is also an RTOS platform integrating all Wi-Fi MACs and TCP/IP protocol libraries. The user can develop embedded Wi-Fi products that meet their needs, based on serial communication.

​ The structure of TYJW2.1 is shown in Figure 1:

Pin Definitions

The interface pins are defined in Table 1.

​ Table 1: Layout of TYJW2.1 Interface Pins

PinSymbolIO TypeFunction
1RXI/ORX communication port of the module, with the input level of 5V TTL
2TXI/OTX communication port of the module, with the input level of 5V TTL
3GNDPReference ground pin of the power supply of module
4VCCPInput pin of the 5V power supply of module

Note: P is the power pin, and I/O is the input/output pin.

Test Pin Definitions

Test pins are defined in Table 2.

​ Table 2: Layout of TYJW2.1 Test Pins

PinSymbolIO TypeFunction
53.3VPPin of the internal 3.3V power supply of module
6GNDPReferent ground pin of the power supply of module
7BOOTI/OIO0 pin, for module firmware programming
8TXD1I/OModule information printing port
9RXD0I/OModule firmware programming port
10TXD0I/OModule firmware programming port
11RSTI/OModule hardware resetting pin

Notes: P is the power pin, and I/O is the input/output pin.

When the IO0 is null, the module runs normally; and when IO0 is at the low level, the module is in the status of firmware programming.

RST is used for module hardware resetting only, but not for clearing Wi-Fi network information.

Test pins are not recommended.

Antenna Information

Antenna Type

Two kinds of antenna are applicable: PCB board antenna and external antenna, the former of which is applied in the default mode. For the use of the external antenna, contact our sales staff.

Reduction of Antenna Interference

When the PCB board antenna is used in the Wi-Fi module, it is recommended to keep the module antenna at least 15mm away from other metal parts, in order to optimize the Wi-Fi performance.
